In October, 1973, Byrd did experiments with Uri Geller. Geller allegedly permanently bent a piece of nitinol metal, a feat impossible without applying great heat. (Byrd, Eldon, "Uri Geller's Influence on the Metal Alloy Nitinol", in The Geller Papers, Panati, Charles, ed., Houghton Mifflin Co., 1976, pg 67-73)(see chptr 15, Gardner, Martin, Science: Good, Bad, and Bogus, Prometheus Books, 1981 for a critical review of this experiment.) "..I do not believe I am hypnotizable. I also used to be an amateur magician and have studied techniques of magic and sleight of hand". (Byrd, pg 73) Byrd describes his work with Naval Surface Weapons as "predicting what war will be like in the future." (McRae, Ronald, Mind Wars, St. Martin's Press, 1984, p 80) "Eldon Byrd who worked for Naval Surface Weapons, Office of Non-Lethal Weapons, was commissioned in 1981 to develop electromagnetic devices for purposes including 'riot control', clandestine operations and hostage removal." "Byrd also wrote of experiments where behavior of animals was controlled by exposure to weak electromagnetic fields. 'At a certain frequency and power intensity, they could make the animal purr, lay down and roll over.'" (Keeler, Anna, "Remote Mind Control Technology") Former operations analyst with the Advanced Planning and Analysis Stoff of the Naval Ordinance Laboratory in Silver Springs. Member of Mensa and the American Society for Cybernetics. While with the Navy, he supposedly confirmed the Backster effect, which deals with the alleged psychic ability of plants.(Tompkins, Peter and Bird, Christopher, The Secret Life of Plants, Harper and Row, 1973, pg 40-2) Byrd sued skeptic debunker James Randi for $30 million for defamation. Randi had called Byrd a convicted child molester [in the June 1988 issue of Rod Serling's Twilight Zone Mystery Magazine], when in fact he had been arrested for possession with intention to distribute obscene materials involving children, and plead guilty to a lower charge of possession with intention to distribute obscene materials. Byrd "won", but received no money. During the trial, he supposedly admitted to having sexual relations with a minor to whom he was a legal guardian. (Skeptic, vol 3, #3, pg 34; Also, click here for press releases and a commentary by Marcello Truzzi) "Byrd told me [Dick Farley] about it [lawsuit w/ Randi] over dinner at C. B. "Scott" Jones home one evening of several we spent together back in '92 and '93 there" "Byrd said that Uri Geller put up $10,000 for his legal costs. Byrd and Geller are good friends, from back in the '70s..." "Byrd says he had been "set-up" by postal inspectors, part of some initiative to discredit him because he was too public with his personal interests in "psi," etc. He'd allegedly had some Navy security clearance issues dog him, which contributed to his early retirement as one of their senior most civilian scientists." "When he was still with the Navy, Dr. Byrd was the contract manager for some of the research Michael Persinger did, on 'neuro-impacts' of various EMFs and ELFs. Something about wave-propagation and influences on submariners if somebody "beeped" them with mind-influencing EMF signals, etc., that kind of thing." (Farley, Dick, "False Memory Spindrome") "I told an audience at the annual meeting of the American Physical Society about the hilarious claims that Eldon Byrd made in court concerning important projects he'd been working on as a parapsychologist. One was a wrist watch that would protect the lucky wearer against the deadly effects of hair dryers and electric razors that bombard the brain with those 60-Hertz electrical waves. The watch would sense the phase of the offending waves and generate an opposing field to protect the subject.... But by far the best laugh of the trial was generated by Byrd when he proudly announced that, as a result of reading and believing the book, The Secret Life of Plants, he had a project going to train seaweed so that it could warn naval divers of danger." (Randi Hotline, 3/27/95)Byrd is currently working with dolphins, presumably continuing the work he left with Naval Surface Weapons (does anyone have any details of his departure - date, reason, etc.) He is the chief scientist of the "Hello, Dolphin" Project at World Dolphin Research. This project deals with the emissions and reception of ELF and other electromagnetic radiation between humans and dolphins, which has relevance with the overlap between psychic phenomena and mind-control. He presented the paper "Dolphin Project Report and More" at the 1996 Annual Conference of the US Psychotronic Association.

Eldon Byrd (U.S. Naval Surface Weapons Center, Maryland). "

"I had a call from someone in the CIA," Eldon Byrd recalls. 'They asked me to come over. They wanted to talk about Uri Geller" And then there's Eldon Byrd. In 1972, he tells me, "I had a call from someone in the CIA. They asked me to come over. They wanted to talk about Uri Geller."

*Eldon Byrd (U.S. Naval Surface Weapons Center, Maryland). "

Geller altered the lattice structure of a metal alloy in a way that cannot be duplicated. There is no presentscientific explanation as to how he did this." (This is the firstresearch related to parapsychology conducted at a USGovernment facility to have been released for publication bythe U.S. Department of defense). By striking coincidence or, as Geller happily insists, synchronicity - Byrd happens to be staying at the Algonquin, too. Geller had asked him to come from his home in Illinois to help him give his twohour Learning Annex lecture, something they'd done only once before, Byrd tells me, in Japan. Byrd's name has been linked to Geller's for years. Today, he tells me, he's an inventor. But from 1968 into the late 80s, he was an engineer for the Naval Surface Weapons Center in Silver Spring, MD (a suburb of DC), with an interest in what he calls "unusual and unexplainable phenomena." In the early 70s, when Geller came to DC to give one of his lectures, Byrd arranged to meet him and administer a little test. At his Weapons Center lab, Byrd had worked with "shape memory alloys" metals that change shape only under specific conditions, like extreme temperatures. When you return them to those conditions, they "remember" that shape and go back to it. They're used, for example, in antennae for satellites. You mold them into their antenna shape at a temperature near absolute zero. Then, at room temperature, you can crumple them into a little ball and stuff them into a pocket on the side of the satellite. Out in space, where it's zero degrees, that little ball "remembers" and pops out of its pocket, back in antenna shape, ready to transmit. { Memory metals return to the pre - formed shape when warmed. - Internet editor.} Byrd tested Geller's power to manipulate snippets of a filament of a shape metal alloy, figuring it'd be "pretty difficult to cheat." Basically, he says that Geller was indeed able to bend the wire with his mind, in ways that couldn't be reproduced physically. Very impressed, Byrd "had the laboratory put out a press release...an officiallyreleased U.S. government statement that the Naval Surface Weapons Center of the U.S. Navy will neither confirm nor deny that anything unusual had happened to the material." Which, he grins, was the first time the U.S. government hadn't denied that it was conducting tests of psychic powers. "So that was a real breakthrough," he chuckles. And his superiors at the lab? "Boy, were they mad. My boss came down to me and said, 'What is this?' 'You signed it.' Yeah, but I don't read these things.'" In 1972, he gets that call and drives around the Beltway to CIA headquarters in Langley, VA. At that first meeting, "they asked me some general questions, like how well did I know him, what he was doing, had I visited with him. General questions at first. And then, had I ever had any experiences" of Geller's powers. He came away with the distinct impression that the CIA was doing its own testing of psychics. "I went home really excited," he recalls. "It turns out that that was just the beginning of the CIA and Uri. They'd call me every once in a while and ask me if I knew where Uri was and what he was doing... They were very interested in Uri" for the next few years. "Finally, years after they stopped asking about Uri, I asked the person I was contacted by, 'Why were you always interested in where Uri was? You were almost more interested in where he was and what he was doing than I was.' He said, 'First of all, we would not have been interested in him at all unless we knew he was for real.' I said, 'How did you know he was for real? You've got all this controversial data I could tell you what I did, but you weren't there.' He said, 'Oh, we know he's real because we tested him.'" Byrd further claims that Uri once said to him, "'Look, I live in the United States. I work here, I don't pay taxes as a resident alien. I'd like to do something to help. Why don't you call your contact person at the CIA and tell them I'd like to do something for them?'" Byrd called his contact ("I always made it a point to call the CIA from the scramble phone. We only had one scramble phone, a KY3, 'the gray phone.'") "When I told [the CIA contact] Uri wanted to do something for them, he said, 'We can't use him.' 'What do you mean you can't use him? He's willing to help you.' He says, 'The policy of the CIA is we never use double agents.' I said, 'A double agent?' He says, 'We know Uri works with Mossad.'" It's not clear to me how this version of events fits with Geller's chronologically, but anyway. It's Byrd's belief that Mossad used Geller as "insurance." When they raided Entebbe on July 3, 1976, for instance, they apparently flew in under the radar defenses - but also had Geller concentrating his mental powers in an attempt to knock the radar out. He thinks they similarly used Geller when they bombed Syrian antiaircraft missile batteries in Bekka Valley. I know, I know. But then there's Project Grill Flame. Code name for secret research conducted at SRI in the mid70s. Later moved to Fort Meade in Maryland and renamed Stargate. Byrd claims he was "read into the program," as the jargon went, and signed a form stating, among other things, that the government would deny he'd ever signed it. It wasn't the CIA running the project, Byrd says, but the DIA - the Defense Intelligence Agency - and the funding was military. He adds that "they weren't getting all that much. There were rumors out there of millions of dollars. When I was working for the government, the maximum they ever put in was a million, total, in a year. And it came in bits and pieces. It wasn't like a chunk. The Navy chipped in so much, the Army chipped in." Byrd says he once went to a Grill Flame briefing "in the most secure briefing room in the Pentagon. You had to have seven levels of badges to get down there. Every time you go through a level, [the guards] have this list. They check you off, they touch the badge, they look at your face and compare it to the picture on the badge. This room was swept everyday for bugs. It was the 12th floor down underground." The reason for the secrecy, he says, was the "remote viewing" aspect of the program. They were not just testing it, he claims: they were training a group of military intelligence personnel in how to use it. A couple of years ago, a retired Army warrant officer named Joseph McMoneagle went public with the claim that he was one of about 15 of these remote viewers, involved in Grill Flame/Stargate from 1978 until 1993, using the technique to help locate hostages, enemy spies, submarines and so forth. In 1995, the CIA issued a report critical of Stargate and calling further expenditures on it "unjustified." http://www.freedomfchs.com/usarmyrptonmicrowavefx.pdfBioeffects of nonlethal weapons Eldon Byrd, Psychotronic Weapons ExpertByrds of a Feather...Scientist Eldon Byrd, who worked for the Naval Surface Weapons Office, was commissioned in 1981 to develop electromagnetic devices for purposes including riot control, clandestine operations and hostage removal.Eldon Byrd was a Medical Engineer with an MS from The George Washington University. He was a POLARIS submarine expert for industry, and held various positions in the US Government, including Strategic Systems Analyst, Operations Research Analyst, Cryogenic Engineer, Head of the Department of Defense Environmental Projects Office, Project Manager for the Navy's Metal Matrix Composites Program, and Project Manager of the Marine Corps Non-Lethal Electromagnetic Weapons Project. His contractors for this project included Drs. Ross Adey, Michael Persinger, and Robert Beck. He is considered to be an expert in the biological effects of extremely low frequency magnetic fields. He was the technical consultant for the book "Maze", by Larry Collins, and was directly involved in the evaluation of Igor Smirnov's "Psychodiagnosis and Psychocorrection" technique while Smirnov was in the US. Dr. Byrd died on Dec. 30, 2002. Of all Carl's weird friends, perhaps physicist-medical engineer Eldon Byrd is among the shadowyest. Byrd lived in Maryland close to where The Exorcist incident actually took place, and this stimulated the government toward supernatural research.Blatty released the book William Peter Blatty On The Exorcist From Novel To FilmWashington Post (Bill Brinkley, “Priest Frees Mt. Rainier Boy Reported Held In Devil’s Grip”), that told of a 14-year-old Mount Rainier, Maryland boy who had been freed by a Catholic priest of possession by the devil through the ancient ritual of exorcism [in 1949]. . . all of the sensational material printed on the subject placed him in Mount Rainier [Maryland]. Having spoken with members of Mount Rainier’s largest, oldest, and most prominent families, I found it very odd that not one person knew either the boy’s name or the names of any of his family members. Several told me that they had heard rumors that the boy in question was really from Cottage City, a small semi-isolated community just a short distance away. I felt I had hit paydirt when one lifelong Mount Rainier resident, Dean Landolt (today 70 years old), candidly told me, “I was very good friends with Father Hughes, the priest involved in that case, as was my brother Herbert. Father Hughes told me two things—one was that the boy lived in Cottage City, and the other is that he went on to graduate from Gonzaga High and turned out fine.”http://www.strangemag.com/exorcistpage1.htmlMilitary researcher and speaker Byrd was an expert in nonlethal EMF weaponry and electromagnetic aspects of living bodies - on cells, tissues, thoughts and whole populations. He worked in acoustics, amplification and transduction. He published a paper on the telemetry of brain waves in the "Proceedings" of the International Telemetering Conference, 1972. He particpated in panels for USPA on scalar physics and biofields with Tom Bearden, Elizabeth Rauscher, Bob Beck and others. In his later years, like Carl, he seems to have taken a humanistic turn toward his fellow man, perhaps as a reaction to earlier research and proprietary knowledge he was exposed to in the course of his professional life.USPA 1993. Psychoactivity of Extremely Low Frequency EM and Scalar Fields: A lecture by Dr. Eldon Byrd, a government scientist “formerly” with the US Naval Weapons Lab, who discusses the relationship of intention and connection-at-a-distance between organisms, psychoactive signals, some of the history of beta-endorphin research, the up-and-coming research in bio-optics, how electromagnetic stimulation can and does have the capability to induce an “alien” experience, the relationship between opiate compounds and the immune system, brain-immune system communication, behavior-affecting ELF/RF weaponry, and more. In 1973 Byrd was a physicist at the U.S. Naval Surface Weapons Center, Silver Spring Maryland, also home of MRU. His story appears in J. Keith's Secret and Suppressed. 1993 and Lobster Magazine (Britain) 1998-#34. The inside track has it that Byrd was close enough to Carl to stay in his apartment. In general, what astounded Carl the most was Byrd's secret inventorying and evaluation of all the captured German secret superweapons. These projects of WWII tied into Krippner's Airforce/Rand connection. REAL (scalar) Kirlian photography could be used to test for microcracks in airplane structural parts, but could also conversely CAUSE cracks in an engine mount or wing root just by turning up the power. Byrd was also able to correctly predict the Soviets would ultimately cease to be a world power in 1984, because he learned it from a time traveller who allegedly turned up in the streets of Silver Springs, according to inside sources. In May 1983, for no reason Byrd launched into a long reminiscence on the phone about his work with ESAKI and BRIAN JOSEPHSON at the Univ.of Illinois in 1965, when another MRU associate was developing the tunnel diode, which Josephson and Esaki shared the Nobel Prize for in 1973. Almost nobody knows that as of 1985, Josephson and Byrd were still very close. Eldon was in charge of evaluating all the captured data of Heisenberg's group during the war. They had a thing called a "dioden tunnel" which was about the same as a tunnel diode. When a dioden tunnel is used as the switch to collapse a magnetic field, the collapse could be so fast that the harmonics would extend all the way to light, xrays and beyond. Josephson had figured out an explanation and they were still involved in it after hours at naval surface weapons at White Marsh, Maryland. They called it "sparking the vacuum." When Eldon Byrd died of cancer, some suggested it was under suspicious circumstances. Whether he was 'ethical' or not depends on your point of view. Realizing the nature of his EMF weaponry research before his death he became somewhat of an advocate for mind control victims, trying to help them measure the signals they are harassed with. Having worked with such technologies he knew claims could be legitimate and he validated that claims were seriously worth investigating. He also funded Dr. Adey's LIDA machine, testing for therapeutic effects.

From 1980 to 1983, Byrd ran the Marine Corps Nonlethal Electromagnetic Weapons project. He conducted most of his research at the Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute in Bethesda, Md. "We were looking at electrical activity in the brain and how to influence it," he says. Byrd, a specialist in medical engineering and bioeffects, funded small research projects. All this took place in the MRU/MRF era. The electronic and medical engineer wrote the original human experimentation protocols for the Navy in 1981, and 'wrote the book' on ELF weapons. He also researched counteracting adverse electromagnetic fields with Qigong, and a near 8 Hz focused mind activity. Interactions of Weak Non-Linear Fields with Biological Processes (1984) and later he wrote on Scalar Physics. http://www.psychotronics.org/scalars.htmDr. Eldon Byrd, in the first issue of Megabrain Report described scalar fields in the following way:

I look at scalars strictly as information. . . Could it be that we live in a sea of information? Not in the form of electromagnetic energy, not acoustic energy, but a whole other form of energy which we currently have no instruments to measure. It's a sea of information. It's just there. It doesn't take any time for it to propagate from one point in time and space to another because it has nothing to do with time and space. Scalars are just information, and they are not bound by the same laws that govern matter or energy.

A hologram results from the destructive and constructive interference of two superimposed coherent electromagnetic energy wave patterns. As a field of interference, a hologram is independent of direction and velocity. It is pure information. A hologram is also independent of space and time: illuminate a small portion of the hologram, and spherically distributed information of the whole is available in the part. A hologram is a scalar field.<9>

The production of synchronized, coherent electromagnetic energy by the human brain at a given frequency leads to a "laser-like" condition increasing the amplitude and strength of the brain-waves. It also generates a scalar field containing the total"information" of that individual. 1981: Eldon Byrd develops EM devices for riot control --

Scientist Eldon Byrd, who worked for the Naval Surface Weapons Office, was commissioned in 1981 to develop electromagnetic devices for purposes including riot control, clandestine operations and hostage removal. (11)

In the context of a controversy over reproductive hazards to Video Display Terminal (VDT) operators, he wrote of alterations in brain function of animals exposed to low intensity fields. Offspring of exposed animals "exhibited a drastic degradation of intelligence later in life... couldn't learn easy tasks... indicating a very definite and irreversible damage to the central nervous system of the fetus." With VDT operators exposed to weak fields, there have been clusters of miscarriages and birth defects (with evidence of central nervous system damage to the fetus). Byrd also wrote of experiments where behavior of animals was controlled by exposure to weak electromagnetic fields. "At a certain frequency and power intensity, they could make the animal purr, lay down and roll over."

Low-frequency sleep induction --

From 1980 to 1983 [. . . ] Eldon Byrd ran the Marine Corps Nonlethal Electromagnetic Weapons project. He conducted most of his research at the Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute in Bethesda, Md.

"We were looking at electrical activity in the brain and how to influence it," he says.Byrd, a specialist in medical engineering and bioeffects, funded small research projects, including a paper on vortex weapons by Obolensky. He conducted experiments on animals--and even on himself--to see if brain waves would move into sync with waves impinging on them from the outside. (He found that they would, but the effect was short lived.) http://www.usnews.com/usnews/culture/articles/970707/archive_007360_2.htm

By using very low frequency electromagnetic radiation--the waves way below radio frequencies on the electromagnetic spectrum--he found he could induce the brain to release behavior-regulating chemicals. "We could put animals into a stupor," he says, by hitting them with these frequencies. "We got chick brains--in vitro--to dump 80 percent of the natural opioids in their brains," Byrd says. He even ran a small project that used magnetic fields to cause certain brain cells in rats to release histamine.

In humans, this would cause instant flulike symptoms and produce nausea. "These fields were extremely weak. They were undetectable," says Byrd. "The effects were nonlethal and reversible. You could disable a person temporarily," Byrd hypothesizes. "It [would have been] like a stun gun."

Byrd never tested any of his hardware in the field, and his program, scheduled for four years, apparently was closed down after two, he says. "The work was really outstanding," he grumbles. "We would have had a weapon in one year." Byrd says he was told his work would be unclassified, "unless it works." Because it worked, he suspects that the program "went black."

Other scientists tell similar tales of research on electromagnetic radiation turning top secret once successful results were achieved. There are clues that such work is continuing.

In 1995, the annual meeting of four-star U.S. Air Force generals--called CORONA--reviewed more than 1,000 potential projects. One was called "Put the Enemy to Sleep/Keep the Enemy From Sleeping." It called for exploring "acoustics," "microwaves," and "brain-wave manipulation" to alter sleep patterns. It was one of only three projects approved for initial investigation.

He presented a paper on dowsing and the psychic ability of plants at the "Mind Over Matter" conference at Penn State University, late January, 1977, organized by Ira Einhorn. Other attendees included Andrija Puharich and Thomas Bearden. (Levy, Steven, The Unicorn's Secret, Prentice Hall Press, 1989, pg 189) The stage magician Randi accused friend Uri Gellar and Eldon Byrd of a blackmail plot to ruin him. In an interview with Twilight Zone Magazine, Randi accused Uri Geller and Eldon Byrd of being the ringleaders in a criminal blackmail plot aimed at destroying Randi. Byrd sued Randi; the jury found that Randi's claim regarding Byrd was defamatory, but awarded Byrd $0 in damagesDr. Eldon A. Byrd writes letter of recommendation for Cahra's [now Mind Justice] work and Cheryl Welsh.

January 8, 2002To Whom It May ConcernThis letter of recommendation has been prepared to introduce and support both a technology and a person. The person is Cheryl Welsh, a law student and researcher who is engaged in trying to find out what is behind the thousands of cases of reported abuse against humans that is causing pain and suffering to innocent victims. The technology is one which, if applied malevolently, could cause the abuse.Cheryl Welsh claims to be an ordinary person who is being harassed by a technology that causes a great deal of anxiety in her life. However, I have found her to be an extraordinary person with an extraordinary ability to thoroughly research a complex topic and draw reasonable conclusions--a talent that will serve her well in her future career as an attorney.The technology she is investigating opens the door to the possibility that humans are being used as subjects in a massive, worldwide experiment to test mind control techniques. Although there is no hard evidence for such a claim, the 'dirty hands' of governments in the the past (the Third Reich, e.g., and several well known and documented human experiments by other governments, including our own) to experiment on its citizens without their permission, makes her claims plausible.In an effort to determine the source of what appears to be an obvious intrusion into the minds of unsuspecting individuals, Cheryl Welsh has formed CAHRA [now Mind Justice], Citizens Against Human Rights Abuse--a non-profit organization dedicated to looking into the problem. CAHRA (almost exclusively through her efforts) has amassed a huge data base of articles, statements, and opinions by experts and victims, including much from the former Soviet Union. The time has come to convert the anecdotal data base into hard evidence, and that is what she, with the help of others under her direction, will focus their attention.I am qualified to evaluate the technology involved, having been in charge of the US Marine Corps Electromagnetic Non-lethal Weapons Development Project in the early 1980's, wherein it was shown that it was possible to alter the behavior of animals with magnetic fields, and entrain human brain waves remotely. Since then, the technology has progressed to the point where even genetic engineering with fields is possible and demonstrable. That the technology to inflict mind control on human beings exists is beyond question. What Cheryl Welsh intends to examine is if it is being used, and if so, by whom? She should be listened to, not dismissed, and she should be supported, not demeaned. What she has uncovered and will uncover is important to the future of mankind, regardless of whether the technology is now being used, because it's potential for abuse is very real and of concern to us all.Eldon A. ByrdDr Ross Adey, formerly of the Brain Research Center at the University of Southern California, and now at the Loma Linda University Medical School, California, worked on the CIA's infamous Pandora Dr Adey's research at the Brain Research Center has shown the existence of a biological reaction to EM radiation. This reaction was found to be dependent on the frequency, amplitude and dose of the microwave radiation used. In the 1980s Dr Adey performed some crucial experiments using microwave carrier-waves modulated with ELF waves to modify brain tissue responses. He carried out experiments with cat brain tissue, showing that the binding of calcium ions to neuronal sites was affected by weak EM fields. These fields were of a frequency and amplitude similar to fields produced in mammalian bodies and detected on electroencephalographs (EEGs).

Dr Adey demonstrated how a 147-megahertz (MHz) field, which at tissue level had an intensity of 0.8 milliwatts per square centimetre, caused an efflux or release of calcium ions from the irradiated brain tissue. This response only occurred when the ELF modulation of the microwave carrier-wave had an amplitude modulated at 6-20 hertz (Hz). The maximum stimulation of the neurones took place at 16 Hz, but to either side of this frequency-range parameter there was no effect.8 [1996 Nexus] REMOTE VIEWING: THE STORY OF THE REAL X FILES By Turan Rifat project. His research involved inducing of specific behaviour modifications by electromagnetic means, as well as inducing calcium efflux events to interfere with brain function-the so-called "confusion weaponry". (More recently, Dr Adey has been warning against the biological hazards of EM emissions from mobile phones.)Secondly, the police have been granted the exclusive use of the 450 MHz microwave frequency range. This is exactly the frequency used by Dr Ross Adey, the CIA mind control expert, in his experiments on behavioural modification. It seems the police have the exclusive use of this mind control frequency and a vast array of antennae to broadcast this frequency all over the country. Very useful for mass mind control in times of emergency. Adey found that by using 0.75mW/cm2 intensity of pulse modulated microwave at a frequency of 450 MHz, it was discovered that an ELF modulation could be used to control all aspects of human behaviour. The Sussex police headquarters is connected to CCTV, closed circuit television cameras throughout the town. Some of these cameras have microwave telemetry devices that could easily be used to broadcast this frequency. The large antennae that bracket the town could also be used. MICROWAVE MIND CONTROL by Tim RifatPSYCHO_ELECTRONICS In the spring of 2002, Dr. Eldon Byrd, a neuro-electromagnetic researcher who had worked on early neuro-influence technology for the United States Navy, provided us with an anonymous letter concerning current-day mind control from a colleague he knew personally. This colleague was a physician working at the U.S. National Institutes of Health. Dr. Byrd also provided us with his own letter corroborating the statements of his colleauge. Here are excerpts from the former National Institutes of Health doctor:

"In the mid to late eighties, while I was a practicing physician, I was working almost exclusively in the field of psycho-neuro-immuno-endocrinology, especially as concerned the new malady, called Chronic Fatigue Immune Dysfunction Syndrome. I had become good friends, Health and Wellness Advisor, and personal physician to US Senator Claiborne Pell of Rhode Island. I had also become very close friends with his Special Legislative Assistant.

"It was in the 1987-88 timeframe that I was introduced to an individual of authority in the US Government who talked about a strange new phenomenon. This individual wanted me to meet a special investigative reporter who had been devoting all his time to investigating this new phenomenon. He thought that with my background in the neural sciences and some of the esoteric things I had been aware of in the realm of the physics of consciousness that I might be of assistance both to victims of this phenomenon and to the investigators of it.

"He told me that there was significant evidence that the phenomenon was real and viewed by those involved in trying to understand it as very dangerous. He warned me from the outset that many of the scientists who had been close to understanding the technology behind the phenomenon wound up dying from apparent heart attacks.

"He said that in the opinion of many who had seriously investigated this phenomenon, that it appeared to be as dangerous a threat to humanity as anything ever in history, because it was not yet traceable to a specific source, and that it was so malevolent, that it had the potential to lead humanity to its own destruction.

"I was also told that it was not uncommon for those investigating the phenomenon to become victims of it themselves, and that he considered that I should know the risks before volunteering to help. Because of my relationship to the Senator and my commitment to assist in matters affecting the health and welfare of the nation, I felt it was my duty to participate to the best of my ability.

"I agreed to meet with the investigative reporter. He came to my office and gave me the first briefing on the phenomenon. I wish to preface my account with the fact that through the succeeding three or four years, I became convinced of the reality of the phenomenon, and in fact did come under attack, although in a manner not typical. What he described was as follows.

"The majority of those who were victims of this 'technology' would report that they had somehow received an implant of a speaker inside their head. Almost incessantly they would hear noise, as in background noise in a busy room with activity of people and machinery. They would also hear voices addressing them specifically. Often they would be harangued incessantly with exhortations to commit vile acts, such as inappropriate sexual behaviors from homosexual assaults to heterosexual rape and pedophilic acts.

"They would also experience the emotional accompaniment of these exhortations as urges that were hard to control. Often the urges and thoughts and voices caused the victim to experience tremendous fear and rage. Some of the victims experienced the 'loss of time,' in which they would be conscious, but somehow missed what happened to them for extended periods, ranging from minutes to hours at a time. They could not account for themselves during these periods.

"Some of the victims made the association that these 'attacks' coincided with watching television or from working at their computers. A number of victims learned that if they lost themselves in a crowd, they could frequently interrupt the 'transmissions.' This would lead them often to wander into crowded places in order to get some peace.

"Inevitably these people would seek medical attention. The majority of these people had no prior history of psychiatric illness. Their experience of the voices had a sudden onset, and they could pinpoint the time or date the first awareness of these events occurred. Although many would be told that they had a psychiatric illness causing them auditory hallucinations, a number of eminent psychiatrists who studied some of these victims felt that the ones truly victimized by this 'technology' did not fall into any psychiatric diagnosis, and that they were not experiencing auditory hallucinations. Quite a number of victims were successful well-adjusted people prior to the onset of the symptoms. Characteristically, all of the content of the voices, which was so perverse, had no reference to past character development in these people.

"This reporter, who we will call M, told me that quite by chance, when one physician had prescribed a phenothiazine called Haldol without telling the patient what it was, the voices stopped almost immediately. However, when the patient found out the name of the medicine, the voices resumed. They tried this on a number of other patients, and found the same thing happened. It was as if there was something physiologically relevant to the action of the "transmission" that interfered with it, but if the monitoring agent behind the technology found out what the interfering drug was, it somehow could abort the efficacy.

"One has to say, as a skeptic, that an initial placebo effect was eliminated once the patient discovered that the medicine was used for psychiatric patients with hallucinations or psychosis. Yet, one has to wonder why, when Haldol is very effective in eliminating hallucinosis with or without the patient's knowledge, why there seemed to be this reproducible escape of efficacy, once the name of the medicine was introduced to consciousness of the victim.

"Another attribute of the attackers according to M was their ability to learn of the victim's past medical history. One of the manifestations of the attack often was the reproduction of acute symptomatology that clinically resembled perfectly attacks of genuine disease conditions, such as acute abdominal pain associated with appendicitis, or chest pain associated with myocardial ischemia, of abdominal pain associated with pelvic inflammatory disease. When these people would seek medical attention for these symptoms, however, there would be absolutely no evidence clinically that anything truly pathologic was happening. Again, this would contribute to the judgment of the health provider that the victim was a 'crock,' meaning that it was all some form of psychosomatic neurosis.

"Investigative reporter M declared that his investigation of this phenomenon had taken him around the world. He had interviewed individuals in Soviet agencies, Israeli intelligence, our own CIA, NSA, and Naval Intelligence organizations. He found that many agencies in other countries had become aware of this and other similar phenomena, and although they acknowledged working on technology that could influence thought and feeling of human beings, made the distinction between their efforts and this phenomenon.

"M stated that he was not able to get those assurances from the people he interviewed at NSA. I remember a specific instance in which M had gained possession of a copy of a transmission recorded from a victim's television set that was submitted to NSA for analysis. Prior to its submission, other scientists had verified that a very unusual signal had been received by some very special device they employed to monitor this victim's TV set.

"I was not told the nature of the signal nor was I told anything about the recording device. What he told me however, was that upon submitting it to the NSA, they were never able to get the recording back, nor were they able to ascertain from the NSA official what their findings revealed about the transmission.

"Investigative reporter M was making the association that the victimization process itself could be propagated from person to person. He stated that he felt that even through telephone lines, one victim talking to another person could result in the person to whom the victim was talking become a victim themselves. He also reported that regarding his investigation, it seemed that as he got closer to answers, that the people he would speak to would irrationally shut him off, even after being initially engaged, interested and even participating in the investigation. He believed that the controlling entity or entities could sense when to interfere and actually cause people to block their own perceptions and awareness. M actually came to believe that the scope of interference could actually lead people to do things that were destructive to themselves, like cause their own automobile accidents.

"He believed that Senator Pell had himself become an unaware victim of the manipulation of this force. He made this conclusion because of times at which Pell would be seriously engaged with M, it was as if a switch had been pulled and suddenly Pell would disengage, seeming to forget what the conversation was about or that he had any interest in what M was presenting at all. Yet later Pell would again invite M back for further discussion, only to have the discussion interrupted again in the same way. M was convinced it was not simply a distraction caused by being too busy or preoccupied with other things. M also took note of the fact that some of the others he had met along the way with insight into this phenomenon had simply suddenly forgotten its importance. And when reminded by M, they would deny even ever knowing about it. M felt this was a defensive maneuver by the agent or agents behind the 'technology.'

"My wife and I began to notice peculiar things in our own life immediately after M would place a phone call to me. For reasons unknown to us we would start to argue with each other and have very bad feelings toward one another. It became such a pattern that my wife pointed it out to me. I had never told her anything about M or the content of our discussions."

"Shortly thereafter, I lost touch with [investigative reporter] M. About a year later I tried to reach him to see how he was doing. I was shocked to find that he was no longer working on this project, but was on to something else. When I said why would you abandon the work you were so fanatically committed to for the sake of humanity, his response was as if he had no idea to what I was referring.

"It has been suggested that this horrible technology is something covertly being used by our government. Although I cannot rule it in or out, I sincerely believe that something real is going on that is not a part of normal physiology to affect these people. Not everyone who hears voices is a victim of this, just as not everyone who is a victim of this hears voices. My experience suggests to me that there is something definitely impacting certain people, perhaps at random, from the outside in."

"Brain imaging techniques are available, such as MRI and PET scans. The MRI is useful for examining brain structure, whereas the PET scan is designed to examine the metabolic activity in the brain. Unless a victim has been subjected to signals that affect the physical structure of the brain, the MRI is of limited value; however the PET scan could determine the difference between internally generated symptoms and externally generated signals."

The excerpts from the letter I just read make it plain that mind control is a very real international crime in progress which needs the urgent attention of every level of government, until it is exposed and stopped.

PKAnother credible witness to the Geller 'phenomena is Metallurgist and US Naval scientist, Eldon Byrd. Byrd has had the opportunity to observe Uri first hand. I asked him what these observations revealed: "I first became interested in "paranormal" (in quotes because the phenomena will be "normal" once we understand the mechanisms) phenomena in general after seeing Ted Serios on the Alan Burke TV show (many years ago). The host was a skeptic, but changed his mind after Serios imprinted images on a sealed and guarded video tape. I first became interested in metal bending after meeting with Uri Geller in the Washington, DC area when he came to do a demo at George Washington University. I first got involved in studying metal bending after Geller altered the memory of a new shape memory alloy of nickel and titanium called NITINOL, invented at the US Navy Government Lab I where I was working at the time.There were analytical tests run on NITINOL that Geller had altered, including electron micrographs, density, photographic, and microscopic. Other tests on Geller material I did not conduct included electron microscope photos of broken keys, cracked gold rings, broken needles, and water imprinted with energy.I have made many direct observations of Geller performing telepathy, mending broken watches and clocks, and sprouting seeds. Some of these I have experienced myself, as a recipient."Q: What is your 'up to date' knowledge of PK and do you have any thoughts regarding the future understanding of PK? Byrd: "I developed several theories about how PK might work in the metal bending phenomena. As a physical scientist I have always been more interested in phenomena that produce hard analyzable data, rather than the soft statisical pablum of parapsychology. Recently I have become acquainted with new information on how the mind can interact with biological processes; I have altered my previous theories. That is how science progresses--not with "proof", but by coherency. We are close to understanding how intention can create action at a distance."During the eighties, Uri moved away from demonstration to put his skills to a more practical test. He began prospecting for minerals and was successful enough to have created the bulk of his fortune by doing so. He also became increasingly positive about his belief that ordinary people could, with personal faith, use similar skills themselves. He took an interest in writing ( see * ) and developed an interest in the medium of the 21st century, the Internet ( see www.urigeller.com )So what can be learned from this phenomenal story?It seems, Uri Geller is the real deal. The fact that I have been able to track down and get up to date responses from some of the key figures in this story indicates that what became known as the 'Geller Phenomena', is still held by many people with credible scientific backgrounds as being a very real ability of human 'mindpower'. Indeed, Targ speaks of 'PK Parties' amongst the intteligentsiai, Govt sponsored physicist bending metals bars using the power of their minds. In his book, 'Mind Medicine' ( Element Books, 1999) Uri sums up what this 'mindpower' is; "I believe it represents a deep wisdom that we all inherit form our forebears and which, once harnessed, can effectively give every one of us much greater knowledge and insight into out lives. I believe that with such awareness comes healthier minds and bodies. Some of us learn how to tap into this energy earlier than others; some come upon it through trial and error. Others cannot explain it but trust it totally. Its power is formidable and this frightens those who have not yet reached the point of understanding the potency of such an invisible force." I sought out the opinion of Dr Susan Blackmore regarding Uri. She provided an interesting perception: " Although millions of people believe in extra-sensory perception, ghosts, UFOs, crystal powers, and the tenets of astrology - the evidence for ESP is controversial (at best), and the claims of astrology demonstrably false. However, people don't want to see endless meticulous experiments with nothing but negative results. Viewers, and the producers who are their slaves, seem to prefer conspiracy theories, beings from outer space, scientists who cover up the truth about our mental powers, and Russians with strong accents who can move trains with their teeth or bamboozle TV presenters with children's party tricks." In respect of Geller, there is too much credible witness evidence to suggest that he is just employing mere trickery. Indeed, if such were the case, he would be perhaps even more of a phenomenal person, having maintained a level of deceit so powerful it has managed to fool some of the most credible academics in history, people with high level security clearances, physisists, metallurgists, astronauts, magicians, politicians and world leaders. Such supposed 'trickery' to such a large and grand scale has certainly never been done before, and leads even some of the most skeptical to consider: "This can't be possible....... can it?"

Geller allegedly permanently bent a piece of nitinol metal, a feat impossible without applying great heat. (Byrd, Eldon, "Uri Geller's Influence on the Metal Alloy Nitinol", in The Geller Papers, Panati, Charles, ed., Houghton Mifflin Co., 1976, pg 67-73)(see chptr 15, Gardner, Martin, Science: Good, Bad, and Bogus, Prometheus Books, 1981 for a critical review of this experiment.)"..I do not believe I am hypnotizable. I also used to be an amateur magician and have studied techniques of magic and sleight of hand". (Byrd, pg 73) Byrd describes his work with Naval Surface Weapons as "predicting what war will be like in the future." (McRae, Ronald, Mind Wars, St. Martin's Press, 1984, p 80) "Eldon Byrd who worked for Naval Surface Weapons, Office of Non-Lethal Weapons, was commissioned in 1981 to develop electromagnetic devices for purposes including 'riot control', clandestine operations and hostage removal." "Byrd also wrote of experiments where behavior of animals was controlled by exposure to weak electromagnetic fields. 'At a certain frequency and power intensity, they could make the animal purr, lay down and roll over.'" (Keeler, Anna, "Remote Mind Control Technology") Former operations analyst with the Advanced Planning and Analysis Stoff of the Naval Ordinance Laboratory in Silver Springs. Member of Mensa and the American Society for Cybernetics. While with the Navy, he supposedly confirmed the Backster effect, which deals with the alleged psychic ability of plants.(Tompkins, Peter and Bird, Christopher, The Secret Life of Plants, Harper and Row, 1973, pg 40-2) Byrd sued skeptic debunker James Randi for $30 million for defamation. Randi had called Byrd a convicted child molestor [in the June 1988 issue of Rod Serling's Twilight Zone Mystery Magazine], when in fact he had been arrested for possession with intention to distribute obscene materials involving children, and plead guilty to a lower charge of possession with intention to distribute obscene materials. Byrd "won", but received no money. During the trial, he supposedly admitted to having sexual relations with a minor to whom he was a legal guardian. (Skeptic, vol 3, #3, pg 34; Also, click here for press releases and a commentary by Marcello Truzzi) "Byrd told me [Dick Farley] about it [lawsuit w/ Randi] over dinner at C. B. "Scott" Jones home one evening of several we spent together back in '92 and '93 there" "Byrd said that Uri Geller put up $10,000 for his legal costs. Byrd and Geller are good friends, from back in the '70s..." "Byrd says he had been "set-up" by postal inspectors, part of some initiative to discredit him because he was too public with his personal interests in "psi," etc. He'd allegedly had some Navy security clearance issues dog him, which contributed to his early retirement as one of their senior most civilian scientists." "When he was still with the Navy, Dr. Byrd was the contract manager for some of the research Michael Persinger did, on 'neuro-impacts' of various EMFs and ELFs. Something about wave-propagation and influences on submariners if somebody "beeped" them with mind-influencing EMF signals, etc., that kind of thing." (Farley, Dick, "False Memory Spindrome") "I told an audience at the annual meeting of the American Physical Society about the hilarious claims that Eldon Byrd made in court concerning important projects he'd been working on as a parapsychologist. One was a wrist watch that would protect the lucky wearer against the deadly effects of hair dryers and electric razors that bombard the brain with those 60-Hertz electrical waves. The watch would sense the phase of the offending waves and generate an opposing field to protect the subject.... But by far the best laugh of the trial was generated by Byrd when he proudly announced that, as a result of reading and believing the book, The Secret Life of Plants, he had a project going to train seaweed so that it could warn naval divers of danger." (Randi Hotline, 3/27/95 Byrd is currently working with dolphins, presumably continuing the work he left with Naval Surface Weapons (does anyone have any details of his departure - date, reason, etc.) He is the chief scientist of the "Hello, Dolphin" Project at World Dolphin Research. This project deals with the emissions and reception of ELF and other electromagnetic radiation between humans and dolphins, which has relevance with the overlap between psychic phenomena and mind-control. He presented the paper "Dolphin Project Report and More" at the 1996 Annual Conference of the US Psychotronic Association.

Scalars

Scalars, Part IEldon A. Byrd http://www.psychotronics.org/scalers1.htm PART I DEALS with the historical background (beginning in 1900 with the discovery of inconsistencies between deductions and experimental data concerning Planck's constant) leading to the concepts supporting scalars as information carriers. A brief review of the development of Einstein's space-time continuum, the nature of reality, classical mechanics, fields and waves, quantum mechanics, and the general and special theories of relativity set the stage for the emergence of scalars as a form of information transfer. In the process, some of what physics is, and is not, is clarified.Part II [to appear in the next issue of this Journal] provides the equations linking vector mechanics with scalars and concludes with how scalars can act as information carriers at infinite velocity.IntroductionOne of the purposes of science is to provide order from the chaos of our sense-experience. This is very difficult because the same brain that experiences the chaos has to make up theories that try to make sense. Physics, in particular, is (and always has been) in a state of evolution. Its basis cannot be distilled from experience by inductive methods and its truth content can only be verified by human consciousness.In 1927 the physical universe was described by Arthur Webster as consisting only of x, y, z, and time. Underlying this description were a myriad of philosophical assumptions.1 Thus, the foundation of mathematical physics is philosophical in nature.Science is concerned with the analysis of parts—assumed to be independent of the whole. Recent advances in science refute this assumption. We are coming back to Newtonian "action at a distance" ideas, but from a different and more sophisticated point of view. Interconnectedness now appears to be a more viable viewpoint than ever before. However, interconnective forces seem to be subtle and not subject to measurement by conventional devices and techniques. Bohm2 called the interconnective force the "quantum potential."Space-TimeEinstein3 so completely connected space and time in our "physical" universe that the concepts of action at a distance, potential energy, and simultaneity were destroyed. This was compatible with Maxwell's equations, but not with classical mechanics.However, in another view, the Pauli Exclusion Principle squeezes an infinity of space-time out of a single point creating a variance of virtual states; whereas Maxwell's equations stem from squeezing an infinity of space-time into a point. We can imagine that we live in a sea of virtual (i.e., unobservable) particles of energy. These energy states may be stimulated by "real" energy to the point of "kicking" virtual particles from negative to positive energy states, making the particles "real." The Dirac equation predicts this and describes the "Dirac Sea" of virtual particles. The Dirac Sea is the matrix of space-time itself.The Nature of RealityScience is based on the concept that an external world exists independent of the perceiving subject. Thus, "reality" is based on speculation; or at least is reduced to indirect observation. Therefore, we must be willing to alter our perception of reality.3 The father of real science was not Euclid—or anyone else before Galileo. Pure logical thinking cannot yield any knowledge of the empirical world; all knowledge of reality starts and ends with experience. Together, however, they form a more complete system than either separately.I propose (as have others) a new paradigm for science: "Physical reality" cannot be described at all in terms of mathematics dealing with the physical because there is no "objective reality." If we start with the premise that there are only fields and that fields generate what we perceive as physical reality—not the other way around—a whole new way of dealing with so-called "reality" will emerge. The balance of this paper deals with this concept, demonstrating why the idea that "matter" creates field does not work as well as the idea that field creates "matter."Classical MechanicsOver the past 75 years, it has become apparent that classical mechanics cannot describe our experience with the physical universe. Max Planck dethroned classical physics by showing that quantum mechanics applies to small masses at slow speeds but high acceleration; thereby overcoming the limiting laws of Newtonian physics.In 1900 it was discovered that there were inconsistencies between deductions from mechanics and experimental facts concerning Planck's constant (ħ). The theory dictated that heat and radiation density of solids would decrease proportionally to decreasing temperature; experience revealed a much more rapid decrease than predicted. No causal laws could be determined before quantum mechanics. Heisenberg, Dirac, de Broglie, and Schrodinger showed that discrete frequencies must be assigned to the energy values.H. Schrodinger developed a partial differential equation relating a complex scalar to position and time in a discrete way. This led to the theory of the atom and explained why gases radiate and absorb only light of sharply defined frequencies. Thus, quantum physics was born.Fields and WavesAt first, a mechanical interpretation of a medium (motion or stress of the ether) was advanced in an attempt to explain "field." This gave way to the electromagnetic field as a final irreducible constituent of physical reality. Force was replaced by field (as described by differential equations). Only the field was allowed to interact. Hertz relegated the ether to obscurity of claiming that the concept of field was fundamental and required no mechanical propagation medium.3 However, this required the introduction of two new vectors connected by relations dependent on the nature of the medium—therefore, inaccessible to theoretical analysis. The vectors added complexity to the concept of magnetic field and the relationship between electric current density and field. Lorentz simplified things for electrodynamics by considering the case where fields are the results of particles in motion. This profoundly transformed physics because waves were no longer tied to the ether; they were the result of other factors and were independent of a medium for their existence. Freeing the electromagnetic field from a material substratum paved the way for the idea of force without matter. At this point no one believed in immediate action at a distance—not even gravity effects. It was assumed that if electromagnetic waves propagated with a finite velocity, then so did electrostatic fields.De Broglie conceived the idea of standing waves, using Planck's constant. However, Born discovered that de Broglie-Schrodinger wave fields were not mathematical descriptions of how an event actually takes place in time and space, but of what we can know about the system. These wave fields make only statistical statements and predictions of the results of all possible measurements. This introduced quantum mechanics into the "real" world.According to Einstein,3 space-time has an existence independent of matter or field; however, there is no such thing as "empty" space—space without field. Space-time does not exist on its own, but is a structural quality of the field. There is no such thing as "nothing." The field is the representation of reality. As Descartes put it, "There exists no space empty of field."3Current field laws have meaning only in regard to inertial systems. Remove matter and field, and inertia and time remain. The Minkowski-space is a carrier of matter and field.3 There is no "now" in Minkowski space.Consider the possibility of replacing "matter" with "field." A dynamic field with areas of low energy density and areas of high energy density—always in a state of flux and manifesting itself in various ways, subject to local organization, having the property of interaction with itself, etc.—can explain most of the questions science has been pondering for centuries. What would be the relationship of the field to "condensed energy" (matter)? An electron is supposed to be an electrically charged particle; so is a proton. If this is true, where are the magnetic masses? Absurdity has run rampant in physics for decades. The "duality" of waves and particles represents the lengths to which physics has gone to in order to "explain" things.No one believed Maxwell until Hertz demonstrated waves.3 Later, however, it was noted that Maxwell's equations do not allow for their solutions to avoid the inherent singularities that keep them from explaining the total electromagnetic inertia of particles. There are no regular solutions to Maxwell's equations that do not contain singularities—points or spaces where there are no solutions to the equations. Thus, a pure electromagnetic field theory of matter has never been attained. Einstein pointed this out emphatically with the generalized field equation:Rik – 1/2(gikR) = -Tikwhere R = the scalar of the Riemannian curvature, and Tik = the energy tensor of matter.Taking the divergence of both sides:div [Rik - l/2(gikR)] = 0 = div (-Tik) = equations of motion of matter in the form of partial differential equations.Field theory fails in the molecular sphere. Quantum mechanics does not relate to any semblance of reality; physics has been relegated to a game of chance. The possession of the truth has been replaced by the search for it.Quantum MechanicsExperiments have shown that it is possible to transition a system from one quantum state to another with external forces consisting of small time-varying additions to the potential energy. The non-linearity and probabalistic nature of this process allows for changes of any magnitude as a function of probability. Hence, Schrodinger proved that Uri Geller can exist.In spite of the expansion of understanding of physical events quantum mechanics provided over classical mechanics, it is still an incomplete representation of "reality" because it is built out of force and material points. Quantum mechanics does not describe in any way the state of a single function, but rather, an ensemble of systems (in a statistical sense). The results are not measurable and therefore, by definition, are outside the realm of "science"—because science requires measurement. Note that the statistical methods of quantum mechanics cannot be applied to fields! Today's physics is not about the nature of reality, but concerned with possibilities. Therefore, there is not now, and never has been, any sound general theoretical basis for physics, because of the apparent uncertainty of everything.LinksCapsulizing the sequence of progression in physics:"objective" realityMaxwell: vector fields de Broglie: waves Dirac: spinors"subjective" realityEinstein: semi-vectors (cancelling charges) Born: probability of fields Heisenberg: uncertainty of things Now: non-existence of particlesMaxwell changed the notion of physical reality from material points in motion (described by total differential equations) to continuous fields (described by partial differential equations). Quantum mechanics went a step further and stated that, indeed, we cannot describe reality in terms of absolute differential equations of any kind, but rather, in terms of the probability of the occurrence of a physical reality.It is only out of ignorance that some still believe that the laws of physics are somehow tied to the structure of the atom and others still believe that the mechanics of a system are determined by potential energy that is a function of its configuration. Arbitrary rules give rise to arbitrary results. Newtonian physics fails utterly to provide a foundation for physics, yet it still occupies a central position in our thinking. Why? Because there is no foundation that is, as yet, complete.Theory does not come inductively from experience. Logical thinking is deductive, and it is rash to think that a confirmation of consequences would spring from it. The dilemma is that no inductive method of thinking can lead to the fundamental concepts of physics (or of anything else). Only a combination can provide the synergy necessary; experiences suggest theory and vice versa. A new approach should be based on the notion that field gives rise to matter, not the other way around.General and Special Theories of RelativityThe General Theory of Relativity is concerned mainly with gravitational fields and cannot predict either the existence or the structure of any other field—including the electromagnetic (EM) field. The "giants" (Weyl, Kaluza, and Eddington) failed to extend the theory to EM fields.3 According to the theory, space is a continuous field composed of four independent variables—space and time-without particles, or material points, or motion. Both the General and Special Theories of Relativity assume no instantaneous action at a distance; however, the Special Theory does not exclude massless information transfer. It is from this concept the notion of scalars as information carriers emerges.References1. Webster, Arthur. Partial Differential Equations of Mathematical Physics, 1955: Dover Publications.2.

Ideas and Opinions, 1954: Bonanza Books.Scalars, Part IIby Eldon Byrd Not only are Maxwell's equations shown to be incomplete, they are shown to be inadequate to describe scalar information transfer in either the steady state or non-steady state cases, even though both cases can be written as scalars. The characteristics of scalars are explored, and tables of definitions and relationships of electromagnetic quantities are compiled. The contrast between scalars and vectors is elucidated, and examples are given.It is concluded that although the space-time matrix limits the physical world, the mind is scalar in nature and, as such, is not bounded.IntroductionScalars as information carriers are allowed in mathematical physics much in the same way that ideas are: Ideas cannot be measured, but their effects can.Electric fields exert a force on stationary as well as moving charges. However, magnetic fields exert a force only on a moving charge (because a magnetic field can be produced by moving charges but not by static charges, whereas an electric field can be produced by either). One big problem: Magnetic quantities were defined in electrical terms. The source of electrical flux is the coulomb charge. No such source for magnetic flux is known or defined (SiUitto).The following is an attempt to define scalars from the viewpoint of established math and physics. Because current math and physics are inadequate for the task, I suggest that the next step should be to develop an entirely new set of physics and math to explain scalars, independent of what currently exists.Maxwell's EquationsMaxwell's equations do not describe the behavior of electrical densities, they describe only the effects of a combination of electrical densities on a continuous field with material points that are discontinuous in space. This indicates the incompleteness of the theory; a complete theory requires the continuity of all elements in time and all points in space. In order to deal with this problem from a mechanistic point of view under the assumption that matter causes field, great complexity is added and paradoxes emerge. For example. Maxwell's equations in free space are only useful for the case of real electromagnetic (EM) energy propagation (they ignore the complex conjugate). They cannot describe instantaneous scalar information transfer in space-time because they predict an infinite amount of energy to do so. It takes no EM energy to accomplish a scalar information transfer, as becomes apparent with a shift in thinking to the concept that field gives rise to "matter."In a non-steady state condition. Maxwell's equations are all scalars. Then, in textbooks, boundary conditions are imposed and the solutions become non-wave solutions. In order to make them work as waves an unknown factor was added to the equations to get them to come out right. Scientists will go to great lengths to prove the universe works the way they think it does, whether they can figure it out or not.Maxwell's first equation was developed by assuming a charge, Q, was contained in a volume and a flux was passing through the volume's surface:The electric flux coming out of the surface (S), integrated over the entire surface of the volume was defined to be equal to the charge inside:However, this says that the flux is infinite for a finite volume, because there are an infinite number of flux lines emanating from the charge. The only way around this was to shrink the surface and volume to zero, and set the result equal to zero. Terrific! Now our physical interpretation of Maxwell's first equation is that the only place in the universe where there is a finite amount of electrical charge is where there is no space!There is nothing wrong with the non-steady state integral form of Maxwell's equations—it is the absurd boundary conditions that were imposed that make them useless for all practical purposes when discussing scalars. However, the preceding equation and:are all scalars. They are the non-steady-state form of Maxwell's equations.Characteristics of ScalarsElectromagnetic fields were theorized "125 years ago and discovered a few years later. Potential fields were theorized 50 years ago and discovered only a few years ago. Scalar fields have been theorized, and recently there is reason to believe their interaction with a laser beam and living human neuronal tissue has been discovered.Scalars are more fundamental than potential fields because they are derived from them, just as potential fields are derived from electromagnetic fields. Scalar fields replace potential fields when E and B are zero. Scalars are longitudinal in nature; they are derived from potential fields capable of supporting longitudinal signals in the total absence of electric and magnetic fields. Longitudinal waves have been observed in physical non-linear conducting media, such as plasmas.Because "propagation" of scalars is independent of the two physical quantities electric permitivity and magnetic permeability (which are linked with the speed of light), scalar information is not limited to the speed of light. Scalar potential is an instantaneous potential, although scalar information can ride piggy-back on EM waves, thus slowing it down from infinity to 3xl08 cm/sec. Thus, it is possible that we live in a universe filled with information fields operating at all frequencies; subtle fields not yet detected by instrumentation; fields that link all life forms. These fields were described by the great mathematician, Dirac.The superposition of two scalar fields can only yield more scalar fields, not EM or potential fields. Therefore, scalars cannot be used for power transmission—only information transfer. Information may be transmitted using scalar fields and detected by some process like electron interferometry. Biological systems are highly non-linear and also can detect and interact with scalars. Because all "matter" is electromagnetic phenomena, there is an interconnectedness through the scalar fields. All biological organisms communicate with each other, and therefore affect each other.It is obvious that electrical energy can be stored in a capacitor (anyone who has touched the terminals of a large charged capacitor can attest to this fact). Yet, where is the energy stored? In the "charges" themselves? On the plates? In the dielectric? Or in the field between the plates? EM field theory makes it look as if it is in the field, but no one knows for sure. If it is in the field, where in the field? Scalar energy just is; it isn't anywhere.When Magnetic and Electrical Fields are ZeroDavid Bohm in England described m 1975 a subtle effect when both E and B fields were non-existent. When the fields are zero, there are no physical results observed because there is no physical energy flow. However, when E and B fields are zero, under certain conditions, their sources (the scalar potential, Vm, and the magnetic vector potential, A) can produce physical consequences. The observable is the probability density of electron phase shifts occurring under the influence of potential fields while no magnetic or electrical forces exist. This effect has been demonstrated by a number of experiments (Aharonov, Bohm, Chambers, Jaklevic, Lanke, Olariu, and Popescu). Because there is no energy transfer to objects when the electric and magnetic fields are zero, A fields are decoupled from E and B and become scalars which penetrate all objects and also transfer information instantaneously. This makes detecting them with currently available instrumentation virtually impossible. However, generating a scalar field is simple. At extremely low frequencies, all B and E fields are contained within a toroid:A is external but not directly measurable. In a mobius, the E and B and A fields are contained; however, a scalar as a function of time varying A is generated (not directly measurable by standard electric and magnetic equipment—all of which requires a transfer of energy to register).Vector MathVector math has been defined and manipulated by college professors and students for a long time. Any good textbook can provide details; however, for purposes of the next section a few relationships will be reiterated.A vector is defined as a scalar that is moving in time and/or space. A vector of zero order is a point with a direction. Vectors can be added, subtracted, multiplied, divided, and operated upon. Operations on vectors are of particular interest. Vectors that are invariant under coordinate transformations are called tensors.The divergence (div) of a vector. A, is:The divergence operation on a vector yields a scalar and is known as the del () operation. Thus, •A = div A. This operation is also known as the gradient (grad). Thus,•A = div A = grad AThe gradient of a scalar is a vector; the gradient of a vector is a scalar.There are basically two types of vector multiplication—the dot and the cross product. The dot (scalar) product is defined as the magnitude of A times the magnitude of B times the cosine of the smaller angle between A and B (i.e., |A| |B| cos<AB = A • B = a scalar).The cross product is defined as the magnitude of A times the magnitude of B times the sine of the smaller angle between them times the unit vector, an, perpendicular to A and B:A x B = |A| |B| sin<ABanThere are many combinations of scalar and vector products; e.g.: •A x B.2 x A is a scalar/ where A is any vector field.2 = 0 satisfies every field and provides unique solutions as a function of boundary conditions we make up/ so it is useless for scalar considerations.Vector and Scalar Math Applied to ElectromagneticsWhen a scalar (•A) is integrated over a three-dimensional space, it becomes a two-dimensional surface: represents the flux. Scalars are invariant in any coordinate system. Converting the steady state Maxwell equations into scalars is easy. Take the divergence of each: • x E = 0 • x H = 0 ••D = • ρ = 0 ••B = 0 Math and physics are satisfied, everything equals 0, and we have again proven we know a whole lot about nothing. B = μH = x A and • E = ρ B and H are linked with μ, and E and ρ are linked with , μ and are defined by a linkage to the speed of light. Therefore, all the manipulation in the world will not allow these physical quantities (and therefore Maxwell's equations) to describe instantaneous scalar information transfer.ConclusionsThis paper has shown that the foundations of mathematical physics, as applied to the classical and quantum mechanical basis of electromagnetic field theory, fail to account for an entire area of theoretically available signals termed "information scalars." For example, suppose a molecular structure possesses an inherent field quality that "broadcasts" its presence to all the universe. The "information" about the structure is omnipresent—there is no electromagnetic energy transfer associated with this process, and time does not even enter into it.Cause and effect have been established between scalars and biological processes empirically. It behooves us to come up with math and physics to explain what's going on; it has to be outside of established math and physics, which has failed to provide a complete basis for observation, and even a complete basis for its own theoretical self.SummaryReality is not based on measurement. Science is; therefore, reality is not based on science. Science is metaphor.Fields produce "matter."Newtonian mechanics is incomplete.Quantum mechanics is incomplete.Maxwell's equations are incomplete.Scalars are information.Particles (including protons, electrons, and sub-atomic particles) are really just fields that manifest themselves to our senses and instruments in such a way that we define them as "matter."ReferencesThe following were used in the preparation of this paper:

In October, 1973, Byrd did experiments with Uri Geller. Geller allegedly permanently bent a piece of nitinol metal, a feat impossible without applying great heat. (Byrd, Eldon, "Uri Geller's Influence on the Metal Alloy Nitinol", in The Geller Papers, Panati, Charles, ed., Houghton Mifflin Co., 1976, pg 67-73)(see chptr 15, Gardner, Martin, Science: Good, Bad, and Bogus, Prometheus Books, 1981 for a critical review of this experiment.)"..I do not believe I am hypnotizable. I also used to be an amateur magician and have studied techniques of magic and sleight of hand". (Byrd, pg 73) Byrd describes his work with Naval Surface Weapons as "predicting what war will be like in the future." (McRae, Ronald, Mind Wars, St. Martin's Press, 1984, p 80) "Eldon Byrd who worked for Naval Surface Weapons, Office of Non-Lethal Weapons, was commissioned in 1981 to develop electromagnetic devices for purposes including 'riot control', clandestine operations and hostage removal." "Byrd also wrote of experiments where behavior of animals was controlled by exposure to weak electromagnetic fields. 'At a certain frequency and power intensity, they could make the animal purr, lay down and roll over.'" (Keeler, Anna, "Remote Mind Control Technology") Former operations analyst with the Advanced Planning and Analysis Stoff of the Naval Ordinance Laboratory in Silver Springs. Member of Mensa and the American Society for Cybernetics. While with the Navy, he supposedly confirmed the Backster effect, which deals with the alleged psychic ability of plants.(Tompkins, Peter and Bird, Christopher, The Secret Life of Plants, Harper and Row, 1973, pg 40-2) Byrd sued skeptic debunker James Randi for $30 million for defamation. Randi had called Byrd a convicted child molester [in the June 1988 issue of Rod Serling's Twilight Zone Mystery Magazine], when in fact he had been arrested for possession with intention to distribute obscene materials involving children, and plead guilty to a lower charge of possession with intention to distribute obscene materials. Byrd "won", but received no money. During the trial, he supposedly admitted to having sexual relations with a minor to whom he was a legal guardian. (Skeptic, vol 3, #3, pg 34; Also, click here for press releases and a commentary by Marcello Truzzi) "Byrd told me [Dick Farley] about it [lawsuit w/ Randi] over dinner at C. B. "Scott" Jones home one evening of several we spent together back in '92 and '93 there" "Byrd said that Uri Geller put up $10,000 for his legal costs. Byrd and Geller are good friends, from back in the '70s..." "Byrd says he had been "set-up" by postal inspectors, part of some initiative to discredit him because he was too public with his personal interests in "psi," etc. He'd allegedly had some Navy security clearance issues dog him, which contributed to his early retirement as one of their senior most civilian scientists." "When he was still with the Navy, Dr. Byrd was the contract manager for some of the research Michael Persinger did, on 'neuro-impacts' of various EMFs and ELFs. Something about wave-propagation and influences on submariners if somebody "beeped" them with mind-influencing EMF signals, etc., that kind of thing." (Farley, Dick, "False Memory Spindrome") "I told an audience at the annual meeting of the American Physical Society about the hilarious claims that Eldon Byrd made in court concerning important projects he'd been working on as a parapsychologist. One was a wrist watch that would protect the lucky wearer against the deadly effects of hair dryers and electric razors that bombard the brain with those 60-Hertz electrical waves. The watch would sense the phase of the offending waves and generate an opposing field to protect the subject.... But by far the best laugh of the trial was generated by Byrd when he proudly announced that, as a result of reading and believing the book, The Secret Life of Plants, he had a project going to train seaweed so that it could warn naval divers of danger." (Randi Hotline, 3/27/95)Byrd is currently working with dolphins, presumably continuing the work he left with Naval Surface Weapons (does anyone have any details of his departure - date, reason, etc.) He is the chief scientist of the "Hello, Dolphin" Project at World Dolphin Research. This project deals with the emissions and reception of ELF and other electromagnetic radiation between humans and dolphins, which has relevance with the overlap between psychic phenomena and mind-control. He presented the paper "Dolphin Project Report and More" at the 1996 Annual Conference of the US Psychotronic Association.

In the context of a controversy over reproductive hazards to Video Display Terminal (VDT) operators, he wrote of alterations in brain function of animals exposed to low intensity fields. Offspring of exposed animals,"exhibited a drastic degradation of intelligence later in life... couldn't learn easy tasks... indicating a very definite and irreversible damage to the central nervous system of the fetus." With VDT operators exposed to weak fields, there have been clusters of miscarriages and birth defects (with evidence of central nervous system damage to the fetus). Byrd also wrote of experiments where behavior of animals was controlled by exposure to weak electromagnetic fields. "At a certain frequency and power intensity, they could make the animal purr, lay down and roll over."Low-frequency sleep inductionFrom 1980 to 1983 [...] Eldon Byrd ran the Marine Corps Nonlethal Electromagnetic Weapons project. He conducted most of his research at the Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute in Bethesda, Md."We were looking at electrical activity in the brain and how to influence it," he says.Byrd, a specialist in medical engineering and bioeffects, funded small research projects, including a paper on vortex weapons by Obolensky. He conducted experiments on animals - and even on himself - to see if brain waves would move into sync with waves impinging on them from the outside. (He found that they would, but the effect was short lived.)

By using very low frequency electromagnetic radiation--the waves way below radio frequencies on the electromagnetic spectrum--he found he could induce the brain to release behavior-regulating chemicals. "We could put animals into a stupor," he says, by hitting them with these frequencies. "We got chick brains - in vitro - to dump 80 percent of the natural opioids in their brains," Byrd says. He even ran a small project that used magnetic fields to cause certain brain cells in rats to release histamine.

In humans, this would cause instant flulike symptoms and produce nausea. "These fields were extremely weak. They were undetectable," says Byrd. "The effects were nonlethal and reversible. You could disable a person temporarily," Byrd hypothesizes. "It [would have been] like a stun gun."Byrd never tested any of his hardware in the field, and his program, scheduled for four years, apparently was closed down after two, he says. "The work was really outstanding," he grumbles. "We would have had a weapon in one year." Byrd says he was told his work would be unclassified, "unless it works." Because it worked, he suspects that the program "went black."

Other scientists tell similar tales of research on electromagnetic radiation turning top secret once successful results were achieved. There are clues that such work is continuing.

In 1995, the annual meeting of four-star U.S. Air Force generals--called CORONA--reviewed more than 1,000 potential projects. One was called "Put the Enemy to Sleep/Keep the Enemy From Sleeping." It called for exploring "acoustics," "microwaves," and "brain-wave manipulation" to alter sleep patterns. It was one of only three projects approved for initial investigation.
